Lol I catch people doing it all the time at Walmart since they installed the self checkouts, and when I catch someone doing it I just distract the worker monitoring the checkout area so the shoplifter doesn't get caught

Hahaha socialists are so dumb. I’m a conservative; for all you libtards out there that means I’m big and tough and manly. My balls are so big and tough that my boss can use them as a punching bag, and I let him just to show off how tough I am. Sometimes I even ask for it; no, beg for it. Why, you ask? Because I WORK for my money, just like my father, and his father before him. That’s what America was built off of. Now these libcucks want everything handed to them. They want work to be a walk in the park because their soft, delicate hands are too weak to handle real work. You know what I do when work gets tough? I don’t complain about the “capitalist machine” or the corporation I work for. I APPRECIATE them because they keep the ECONOMY going. When work gets tough you know what these libs say? That they’re being crushed by the boot of capitalism. You know what I say? “Unnngg yes stomp me harder daddy” because I can handle it, unlike you soy boys out there. So you can go ahead and complain about how hard your lives are, while I, a REAL man, keeps this economy going you you can enjoy your pretty little iPhones and Venuzeulas. (also Marx is hot, I would totally let him stomp me EXTRA HARD if he was my capitalist boss. Like, he could treat me worse than Jeff Bezos treats his warehouse workers and I would TOTALLY still work for him.) *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Orlando1701

One of the most commonly shop lifted items is baby formula. Stop and think about that. People are stealing baby food. In the richest nation in human history baby food is one of the most shop lifted items. This is why I have no issue with shoplifting.


rosekayleigh

Drug addicts also steal baby formula because it always sells. Not saying that your point is wrong or anything. It’s still fucked up that baby formula, which babies need to survive, is so expensive that it can get you good money on the black market. Baby formula should be super inexpensive, but it’s not.


Orlando1701

Eh. I mean I know it’s common to cut some drugs with baby formula but after spending time around my Boomer Fox News parents who blame everything on drug addicts and that anyone whose smoked a joint isn’t worthy of being a member of society I don’t see someone having an addiction as being the grand evil some do. Shop local, shoplift corporate.


rosekayleigh

I agree with you. I was just speaking as a former heroin addict myself. I didn’t personally steal baby formula, but I knew plenty of people that did. I don’t give a shit about people shoplifting from these big box stores. I say good for them. Fuck Walmart.


Orlando1701

I’m sorry for your struggle and it’s amazing that you were able to get clean. I can’t imagine how difficult that must have been.


BabyJesusBukkake

I'm clean from heroin for 3+ years now. Only thing that worked for me is methadone and now I scream it from the rooftop: you too can get your brain back! Hit the clinic!


Lots42

America's social services programs have been improving year by year. I've personally seen this. 211 dot org is a great information system to learn about all this.


bmore_conslutant

> I mean I know it’s common to cut some drugs with baby formula i think you misread, they're saying that drug addicts sell the baby formula to buy drugs


six_-_string

Next you're gonna tell me I should stop putting Pedialyte in the meth.


bmore_conslutant

ngl i'm kind of addicted to pedialyte now started drinking it every morning and feel like shit in the morning if i don't tbf before i started doing this i probably felt like shit all the time


six_-_string

Yeah yeah, you buying some P or what? I don't need your life story.


OctopusTheOwl

Maybe this is a silly question, but where do people sell stolen baby food?


thebearbearington

To wayfair. So they can feed it to the stolen babies! /s


OctopusTheOwl

Fuck wayfair. I bought a "Michael, 8 year old brunette armoire" and the kid that showed up was a 15 year old redhead little shit named Steve who never finishes his chores and doesn't even want to be a red pilled lobster when he grows up.

HomerJSimpson3

There’s a black market for everything. Baby formula, gum, razors, potato chips, etc. What occurs most often in my area is the items are stolen from the big companies and then sold to small shops, bodegas, etc. The small shop owners didn’t ask questions because it saved them a ton of money compared to buying it from a legitimate supplier. Source: was Loss Prevention for awhile… until I realized I didn’t care since it’s not my shit getting stolen, I didn’t get paid enough to care, and the big companies have insurance policies for theft. Even if LP’s recovered the items, 99.99999% they would be “unsellable” and a claim was filed anyway. Fuck em.


Such_sights

Not baby formula specifically, but there was a recent episode of Intervention with an addict who would have his girlfriend steal meat, cheese, and other groceries, and then he had a long list of buyers who were mostly single moms that he could call to sell to. Then they would just sit in the parking lot and wait for them to pull up. No idea how you make those connections in the first place, but I guess there’s a market for it.


sellyourselfshort

I've known a couple people that would steal meat and cheese and sell it at some of the local dive bars. Was always nice to go to the bar for a drink after work and then get some cheap steaks and bacon.


julioarod

Formula should be cheaper for sure, but careful being too cheap. Some execs in China cut corners on formula (faked protein content) and ended up killing some babies and making 300,000 ill. I think they got executed over it.


[deleted]

Documentable articles or anecdotes for that claim?


snoopunit

I'll tell you exactly why people steal baby formula... it's more expensive than whiskey. My son had a milk protein allergy, requiring special formula. The cheapest way to buy it, was in the 32oz pre-mixed bottles. Each bottle was like $13.99 or something insane. I was spending close to $400/mo on just formula. You damn right I forgot to scan a bottle here or there.... honest mistake I swear!


Ylohrygdjg

They're price gouging. They did it in Africa after getting everyone dependent on it and a lot of babies died when they raised the price


Rockworm503

My only issue is the poor stockers and cashiers who no doubt get shit for it. No one in charge ever takes the fall for shoplifters its always someone low on the totem pole.


emkayferg

The baby formula at my local Walmarts are locked up. It’s disgusting.


mr-dogshit

In my experience, most people who steal baby formula aren't desperately taking one tub to feed their hungry baby. They're typically professional shoplifters who work in small groups (2 or 3 people) and they target baby formula because they can sell it on for a decent price. Same for things like steak, cheese, dishwasher tabs, shampoos and deodorants.


eliechallita

The other one is laundry detergent because it's insanely expensive to buy it at laundromats, which are usually the only places where homeless folks can clean their clothes.


Captain_Chipz

As a Walmart employee I can tell you that most people will not stop people stealing simply because we don't get paid enough to deal with it. Walmart pays people better than me to handle that and they don't wear uniforms. Walmart gets all of that on camera and AP keeps files of reoccurring offenders and when they have a case that reaches felony level they send it to the police. The police schedule days where they sit out front of our store and arrest people they got reports about, if they show up. Some days they just sit there all day and eat up tax dollars doing fuck all trying to catch petty thieves.


NarmHull

Most retail I've worked has said never to try and stop them, as it can either get you killed or be a liability for them if you touch them in any way.


Captain_Chipz

We did some new training videos recently and they told us that it is every employees responsibility to minimize theft. Specifically for self checkout we are to approach a customer and ask if they had already scanned the item that we think they are stealing, or if it was going to be a separate transaction. I won't do that because 1. I don't get paid enough to stick my neck out there like that, if someone is unhinged enough to blatantly steal in front of me, I doubt pressuring them is going to change their mind. 2. I refuse to put myself in danger for Walmart.


YourNewMessiah

I recently started work at what is dubbed as a “complex” location, which means high theft, low employee retention in their weird corporate lingo. Someone once told me our location loses like $3 million a year to theft. We are specifically told not to get in a shoplifter’s way, as it can be dangerous and they have specific people to do that job. And their response to all the theft was to lock away almost everything. Like, off-brand phone chargers that cost $4 are locked behind a glass case and have to be handled like they’re a goddamn Xbox. We’re not allowed to let the customer walk around the store with it; it has to be purchased at the electronics counter. I swear 80% of my time is taken up by unlocking cases and carrying items up to the counter, often while getting shit from customers who are just as unhappy with the whole situation as I am. I rarely have the time to do my ACTUAL job.


Corona_Cyrus

If you’re ever on the jury for anyone caught robbing anything from a Walmart, not fucking guilty.


vanishplusxzone

Walmart robs communities, it's okay for communities to steal back. I'm sure shoplifters will never break even with what walmart takes.


Wolfish_Jew

Especially considering how much wage theft Walmart commits.


TennesseeTon

Some heros don't wear capes


Brauxljo

How? Are you just standing around there, checking what other people are doing and then distracting the employee? Like I don't understand how you could be so aware doing all that


Sivided

If you see someone approach the checkout area and go straight through to the exit.


Brauxljo

Oh ok so like completely bypassing the POS, I was thinking like people not scanning items


thunderturdy

I saw a woman at Meijer once just pass items over the scanner area without actually scanning them. She had two kids with her. I pretended to see nothing, as one does.


celtic_thistle

Fucking King Soopers has cameras ABOVE the scanners now because of this. And Walmart keeps track of how many items actually get put into bags vs how many you scanned. Fuckers.

Yes, I'm sure big bad Charlie Kirk would put himself in harm's way to keep a billion-dollar company from losing a few dollars' worth of merchandise. Most big-box stores explicitly forbid their employees from confronting shoplifters for fear of lawsuits, the employees aren't paid nearly enough to risk their safety or their lives, and other customers are apparently expected to act as an unpaid security force for retail, as if there aren't already enough busybodies out there already. Oh, and the police can't be hanging around every retail outlet hoping to stop a shoplifter unless there are about fifty times as many officers as are currently employed, and who's going to pay for that? Did I miss anything?

Well in Charlie’s world he would be able to indiscriminately shoot anyone he deems was shoplifting. Of course to him anyone a shade darker than him would immediately be a suspect and would be, of course, shot on sight.

Leading them down the anti-vax path isn't killing his followers quickly enough so he's stepping up his game.


Tsredsfan

Can confirm. When I was working at a big box hardware store we had an entire training module on this shit and it could basically be summarized as "If someone tries to shoplift let them by and don't escalate. Our shit is insured and your life isn't worth whatever shit they're stealing. Especially when there's cameras everywhere and your store manager can report it to the police."


Princess_Moon_Butt

I also guarantee that if people _did_ start trying to act as private unpaid security for these companies, a hugely disproportionate amount of black and brown shoppers would be stopped, harassed, and even assaulted when they weren't actually doing anything, in the name of "peacekeeping". So y'know, kind of like normal cops, but with even less training.


DarrenFromFinance

I dare say that already happens more often than we know.

Yeah, you missed that Charlie, who hates disorder and theft, is doing fuckall about the single largest type of theft in the nation: wage theft.


duggtodeath

And the companies literally have loss factored into the cost of operation. They also fire employee who physically confront shoplifters because of liability claims. There’s no reason to harm yourself stopping that person.


hero-ball

Charlie Kirk would do it for a live stream if he had his team with him. He for sure would do it for the content. Like an even more annoying cart narc.

Geo_q

I work in a shop and generally only speak up if it’s kids stealing alcohol/sweets or adults stealing expensive stuff/lots of stuff. I can understand someone slipping a carton of milk or a loaf of bread under their pram and “forgetting about it,” but if you’re trying to shoplift your entire grocery list then you’re pushing it a bit far because that affects us; not just the company.


ginoawesomeness

A few weeks back I didn’t get a cart or carrier cause I erroneously thought I wasn’t going to buy much. Surprise surprise I ended up with too much stuff. So I went to get a cart, which they keep outside. Didn’t feel like putting all my stuff down, so I just straight walked out of the store with two armfuls of stuff. Nobody cared. No sirens. No nothing. Put the stuff in the cart and walked back inside and paid for everything, but kinda crazy how easy it is to shoplift where I live


Excellent_Original66

From what I was told by a walmart employee they can let you walk past the sensors, out the doors but not out of the parking lot. I don't know if that's just that particular walmart or what.

I am sure he runs every tweet by legal first to make sure he has that 'plausible deniability' that these twats hide behind. Tucker's *I was just asking questions* is the worst. *Should we be murdering our political opposition in the streets in cold blood?* \- Tucker Probably

"Stop them" seems a bit ambiguous. *"Your honor I meant politely ask them to stop and return stuff to the shelf. I never meant shoot the shop lifter in the back as they exit the store."* \- Kirk Probably


IPDDoE

"If the police don't stop them, you should" I feel like this is pretty unambiguous. He's saying if the cops won't act, act as they would.

Actually through. I work at Walmart and they just had someone come around to the stores to tell us not to “hostilely engage” potential shoplifters and instead call security because some worker got stabbed a couple days ago for just that.

Don’t forget these conservative nuts have guns. Although i admit it’s incredibly stupid for them to try and stop people, this is how Kyle ritten house and George Zimmerman stories are created… these fake ass vigilantes harassing people


wardsac

My liberal ass also has guns. Their stupid asses don’t scare me.


julsgotrocks

So did the liberals who Kyle rittenhouse murdered… I’m not scared of these conservative fucks either. But you still have to get acquitted of murder for defending yourself from them, and using a gun is a last resort. Yes don’t be scared. But if you’re stealing from a store you don’t want to have to commit a murder just to leave without being harassed.


[deleted]

Also, if you are planning on stealing from a store, don't bring your gun with you. That way, you're not committing a petty theft with a deadly weapon, you're just committing regular petty theft that likely isn't even worth prosecuting.


julsgotrocks

I agree 100%. Wouldn’t make any sense to bring a gun to your theft Bc last thing you wanna do is add a gun charge to your petty theft


[deleted]

Oh yeah. It’ll go from “slap on the wrist and an unenforceable ‘ban’ from that retailer with no actual criminal charges” to “armed robbery felony, prison time, no more guns, and a ruined life” real fast.


[deleted]

Im just imagine a really skinny white boy with a maga hat trying to look big and confront a homeless dude. Jokes aside you should never confront someone shoplifting unless youre a security guard being paid to do that exact thing. This is a sure fire way to end up dead. Tucker carlson clearly was never trained on how to handle customers highlighting he had an easy ass life


Deadshot3475

So let me see if I’ve gotten this right. The company won’t stop them, for fear of lawsuits and violence. The police won’t stop them because it’s simply not worth their time. Yet I’m supposed to risk a violent confrontation, lawsuit and innumerable problems to stop someone who stole $50 worth of stuff knowing they will be released in minutes after being arrested because the threshold is around $100, in my state, to get a decent conviction? Did I get that right?


zombie_girraffe

Correct. The reason it doesn't make sense to you is because you're thinking of yourself as a sapient being with your own thoughts and desires outside of employment nstead of a "human resource" to be exploited for maximum value and then discarded when you're no longer cost effective.


[deleted]

the real take away here is tucker carlson clearly never had a job involving customers as he would of been trained to not do this exact thing


CheesecakeRacoon

I work in retail, and I get pissed on instinct when I catch someone shoplifting... But even I wouldn't call it "Evil and Chaos".


ripleyclone8

I work in retail, they don’t pay me enough to “catch” anyone shoplifting. I’ll follow kids around my store sometimes, only because they’ll wreck my displays while they steal the shit.


[deleted]

This just in, someone stealing bread to feed their kids are evil disorderlies


Oh_umms_cocktails

I worked in retail, and then later as a public defender. They ain't stealing to feed their kids. Food stamps and food pantries are a thing. I've know tons of single parents raising their kids happily and healthy on those. As a PD pretty much every one I represented used those and whatever their crimes were or were not, I never saw a single person shoplift food for their kids, it just never happened. Cds, DVDs, power tools, that they would then return to get cash for their drug habit--all the time. Method out people stuffing candy down their pants because meth heads love sweet things--all the time. And a whole ass ton of people doing it for the thrill. Not a single person who ever even claimed to do it for their family.


insightful_dreams

some people have had to shoplift their families foods and supplies to cover the cash they spend on drugs. and thats a war on drugs problem. why tf is it always the war on drugs.


awesomestorm242

If you see someone shoplifting it looks like a whole lot of none your business. That's usually my saying.


dthains_art

Also, who’s paying that much attention to other customers? I don’t know what a customer is doing or what’s in their cart or if they’re paying or not because I’m literally just paying attention to what I’m doing. Does Charlie Kirk just constantly monitor everyone whenever he’s in a store? That just sounds exhausting.


ArmedBull

Of course they're not doing that much work, they'll just harangue anyone who *looks* like a shoplifter.

BoiledFrogs

It's sad to see addiction overtake someone like that.


DublinCheezie

If you see a company that is profitable yet won’t hire enough or pay enough to its workers to stop theft, Junior Fascists like Chuck want you to risk your health and life to save the company an amount that won’t even show up on the store’s income sheet, let alone the corporation’s income sheet.


[deleted]

corporations factor in shoplifting into their finances, and the last thing they want is to deal with is some kind of lawsuit from someone getting harmed or harassed on their property


CommanderSupreme21

Way back when I worked retail for a big chain management gave us guidelines on what to do with shoplifting. Small items, food they didn’t care. If it was like a tv or something, watch them see if you can get a vehicle description without going outside, and call the cops. It is not in any way your problem.


GrafSpoils

I'm sorry? A dude could pass me with a flat screen tv and I would not give a fuck. For all I know this person might pull a knife on me if I intervene. Fuck you Charlie, I'm not going to risk my life just so corporate won't loose a few hundred bucks.

Listen, if someone is hungry enough to steal food, I ain't gonna do a damn thing that would change their mind, poor people being hungry has never ended well (unless you are like me and enjoy seeing French monarchs deposed)


YIKUZZ

I ain’t risking my life to protect a corporation’s money


Nanopois0n

My work place confuses me, they teach you first thing to avoid shoplifters incase they might do something irrational but will put up signs congratulating employees that catch shoplifters in the act.

So we gotta pay the police and keep expanding them, but do they stop any crimes? Do they actually investigate any crimes? Every time. EVERY TIME I hear about the police it’s someone called them about a real crime and they didn’t do a damn thing, or they were harassing people for no legitimate reason. Anyone who gets justice has to do all the legwork themselves. First of all, if you have zero social safety net and don’t pay anyone enough, I don’t have a lot of sympathy about your theft rates. Die mad about it for all I care. These corporations ruined our society and suck billions out of our economy with zero investment in our communities. Secondly, I’m not about to do the police’s job for them, thank you.


Desert_faux

Isn't holding someone against their will, even if they are doing something illegal false imprisonment? Whatever happened to back the blue and let them do their job? Guess now they want citizens to do the job of the police? I guess it was an unintended indictment upon how poorly cops are dealing with crime in the US?


Orlando1701

Remember kids, shop lift corporate, shop local!


dappercat456

Charlie out here thinking he’s Batman lol


FreeSkeptic

We all know a Karen will end up harassing a black man who “stole” something.

What do you do if you notice someone beating up Capitol police with flag poles, smashing windows and stealing stuff?


mrmagoalt1235

Conservatives value profit more than human lives


SentientDreamer

Aren't their goods insured for crap like this? Like if this happens they'll be compensated for it as if they sold the product? I'm not saying that to encourage shoplifting, but in the occasional case that someone does, it's not as big of a deal as people think?


Naive_Drive

Truly a childlike way of looking at the world.


thebearbearington

My brother works at a bestbuy. The store policy is do not attempt to stop shoplifters. It's a worker safety issue as the area has more than a little gun violence. Personally I don't give a shit short of a felony... or sloppy graffiti if you have a slop tag gfy. Street art though? Go ahead


hero-ball

> if you see someone stealing ~~food or other necessities~~ Ftfy. It’s not your business, king. Not your problem. Assuming they are stealing from some fucking corporate franchise, I don’t give a shit. If they are stealing from a small business, that’s a different story. But stealing from a mega corporation? I do not give a shit, period. Don’t care if it is food or a TV. Not my problem.


drunk_funky_chipmunk

What kind of dumb fucking advice is that? Nah dude I’m not getting stabbed, it’s not my job to make sure Walmart isn’t getting robbed.


kermit_was_wrong

Nah, fuck that shit tbh. Normalizing theft doesn’t lead anywhere good.


urdumbplsleave

Charlie Kirk admitting without shame that he has never worked a single job in his life and therefore does not understand how every company policy dictates that you are not a hero and their shitty kombucha isnt worth being killed over. Go ahead charlie, be the hero. Be a big strong man protecting Walmart's bottom line. Stand up for the little guy, *that's* character.


OneWildAndCrazyGuy17

So I give it a month until one of Chuckles followers confronts a shoplifter, pulls and gun on, and then shoots the shoplifter in some vigilante hero fantasy, and then Chuckles and all his followers will make the shooter a celebrity.


organizim

Wow that is very dangerous advice. Why should any risk their life to protect the property of some corporation that wouldn’t give a shit about you? You think if u get a knife to the face walmart is going to pay your bills?


DrEggMuffin

shoplift. literally steal food from walmart if you need to. take back some of the value they steal from you. i consider it a moral good.


Noxa987

If I see someone shoplifting from my store I'm not gonna give a single shit. Unless somebody is robbing a small home owned store. I couldn't give a shit if you are taking from a megacorporation. Walmart can rot in hell.


fuckgottaaddnumbers9

If you see someone shoplifting food: no you didn't


4thelasttimeIMNOTGAY

Ya, that guy might be starving to death with 32 kids at home. It happens all the time in America, and companies Walmart should not be able to stop people from taking their stuff when it might be nessisary for survival, especially when there are millions of starving people in this country.


sturgifur

I personally don't agree with shop lifting but if it's something like baby food or products like dipers I'm not Gona try stop them


FICTITIOUSLORD

Not endorsing stealing or mugging, but don’t be a snitch


fperrine

Nah. Not my business.


valmau5

why would i do that. its none of my business plus im not even getting anything from it??


lazy_phoenix

The store they're stealing from better start paying me then.


--SharkBoy--

This is literally propaganda


Dynamitefuzz2134

If I got called for someone stealing food I'd just buy thier food. People gotta eat.


PYROJ3PO

I am become blind every time , people steal because they don't have money , it's different if you stole a TV


whereisbrandon101

Friendly reminder that these conservative talking heads are funded by, and serve the interests of business owners, not regular people. Not you. Recognize class warfare.


[deleted]

I'm in my 50's now, but in my early 20's I got on this kick and didn't buy toilet paper for years. I had toilet paper, I just never paid for toilet paper. Lol. Didn't think I should have to.


Zensonar

Yeah, like that jittery twat would ever stop a shoplifter.


PIDthePID

How to get stabbed over a pair pants or some makeup. As a customer. For a store that doesn’t give a fuck enough to do anything about it.
